Description

Some suggestions splitted from #3301.

  • mouse cursor should be disabled during cutscenes; also if you are selecting units when cutscene start you see the selection rectangle during all the cutscene (preliminary patch available in #3301);
  • if I run at double speed (more options setting) the cutscene play at 1x speed but terminates before (probably at half time); possible solution is to reset speed to 1x when on cutscene mode;
  • add at least a working demo;

Possible future ideas:

  • add cutscene on every game ending (either win or loose):
    • 1) simulation stops;
    • 2) human units change to cheering animation;
    • 3) camera moves over winning soldiers or other interesting hotspots until;
    • 4) player press the button to continue or quit;
  • add cutscene on game start:
    • 1) simulation stops;
    • 2) camera moves from the CC up to the traditional camera starting position using some path (a spiral around the CC);
    • 3) simulation start again;
  • show an introductory cutscene on game start, eventually only on the first run (and ability to show it again through menu).
